Abstract
Dimethylallyl (DMA) derivatives of a naturally occurring xanthone (decussatin 1) were prepared. Their activity as potential P-glycoprotein inhibitors was monitored by affinity of direct binding and compared to that of corresponding DMA-flavones. Both classes of compounds exhibited the same structure–activity relationships. Decreasing polarity enhanced the binding affinity for the P-glycoprotein C-terminal cytosolic domain since DMA derivatives were more active, but unsubstituted hydroxyl group close to the carbonyl was required for efficient activity.
